RE: Flood Deposits in Mesopotamia [Was: Special Creation]

Hi Bill, you wrote:
 
Suppose the flood was so shallow that the ark only drifted a short
distance
before it ran aground, but that the flood covered such a wide area and
the
water was so wild that no one would dare leave the ark. Furthermore, who
says
the journey began near the Persian Gulf? Suppose it began above Jabel
Judi
(the place where Carol Hill
(http://www.asa3.org/ASA/PSCF/2002/PSCF9-02Hill.pdf)proposes the ark
landed),
ran aground near Jabel Judi and stayed there til the flood subsided.
 
I don't know any civilization north of there active at that time or any
flooding. In theory anything could work I suppose. Shuruppak is the
home of Ziusudra and that is where Carol starts Noah's big adventure. I
have no reason to start some place else.
